Holbeck Ghyll Country House Hotel
With magnificent views over Lake Windermere and towards the Langdale Fells, Holbeck Ghyll is idyllic in any season, surrounded on all sides by Cumbria's natural beauty.
Bedrooms in the main house and in the adjoining Lodge overlook the lake and mountains. Some of the spacious suites have been designed with families in mind, and this applies especially to the Miss Potter Suite, which has a private terrace and a hot tub. All bedrooms have finest Egyptian cotton sheets, CD/DVD players, welcoming flowers and a decanter of damson gin.
Holbeck's Michelin starred and AA restaurant is one of the best in the Northwest and has been ranked No 23 nationwide by the Good Food Guide. Holbeck was built in the 19th century, then bought as a hunting lodge in 1888 by Lord Lonsdale of boxing belt fame.
Relaxation at Holbeck can take the form of walking, boating, golf, bird watching or indulging in a range of treatments at the hotel's spa, which uses a range of ESPA products or exploring the Lake District's rich diversity.

Hotel reviews
12/12/2011 : I took my wife here for a surprise birthday treat. I booked a pamper day in the spa followed by lunch included. It was perfect, she was over the moon. Spa staff were wonderful and really spoiled both of us. It was a perfect day in a perfect location, the weather couldn't spoil the day but it did try. Thank you again.
11/12/2011 : What can I say that hasnt already been said about this exquisite hotel. We stayed in room 20 which has sensational views of Lake Windermere. The real highlight of this hotel however is the dining experience from a Michelin star chef, the food is among the finest I have ever tasted and was only rivalled by the excellent service. The location is also ideal with Windermere and Ambelside on the doorstep, would not hesitate to recommend this hotel to anyone, and can't wait to return again soon.
04/12/2011 : Whilst on holiday in Ambleside my boyfriend is a work obsessed chef and HAD to try this place out for its Michelin star! Classy, elegant and faultless are the words that spring mind, the food was to die for and was excellent value for money! Service was also amazing, attentive!
